https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/62758471 Nearly £2bn. On footballers. In just one transfer window. Given the current very real cost of living crisis, how is this morally right? Don't get me wrong, the COL crisis isn't football's problem to solve, but this just can't be right can it?
Football transfer fees in the Premier League are absurd - league spends like 20+ times more than any other top league. It's obscene. Not sure how/when it will ever stop.
It'd be funny if it was laughable. The premier league (hate it with a passion) is an obscene league. It's corrupt. Most trying to buy the title. With only one winner. Players on obscene wages. But the big earners in the lower leagues had better face reality once released. Fans on the breadline may stop going to matches. Less income for the clubs to spend on exorbitant wages.
Matters not whether it's morally right. As long as it's legal (or via dodgy 'loopholes'), the elite atop the football pyramid will never change. $$$
Money laundering at its seediest best ,they don’t even try and cover it up these days just threaten litigation against anyone that suggests it .
